The patriots are blocking coal shipments to prevent financing the terrorists who are actually the Russian troops unable to fight without this funding.
But the blockade is in the interests of Russia that would benefit from the fact the coal is not delivered from Donbass which it is occupying, but directly from Russia.
The government says the country will not survive without the Donetsk coal, but does not interfere with the blockade of its delivery, because the blockade is carried out by soldiers of the Interior Ministry units and MPs from the ruling coalition, who are beating the Interior Ministry employees who are trying to remove the blockade.
Donbass should be returned because there are our people, but medicines and food can not be delivered to them because they are terrorists.
Pensions can not be paid to Donbass because it finances terrorism, but the coal can be bought there because otherwise the country will not survive.
The gas can not be bought directly in Russia because Russia is an aggressor which can not be financed, but the gas can and should be bought through Slovakia and at a higher price because otherwise the country will not survive.
The Russian troops attack solely at the front line and strongholds because the rest of the border is secure with a wire wall.
Donbass should be shelled because there are the Russian troops and the war, but the Crimea can not be shelled because there are the Russian troops and then there might be a war.
However, we are in a war with Russia, and the West helps us with money because the West is on our side, but officially we have no war because then the West will not give us any money.
We have no civil war because it is Russia fighting against us, but when the Russian-terrorist soldiers are captured, they turn out to be citizens of Ukraine because it is a hybrid war.
And we shoot at residential areas of Donetsk because the terrorists shoot from residential areas, and we shoot ourselves from residential areas of Avdeevka because ... Well, we shoot because we shoot.
This is not a coal blockade, it is a blockade of the brain.
